Public Sector: Scotland

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, what assessment he has made with Cabinet colleagues of the potential impact of the Autumn Budget 2024 on public services in Scotland.

Answer

The budget delivered more money for public services in Scotland with the largest real terms budget in the history of devolution.

People now expect delivery from the SNP government in Edinburgh, especially in our NHS where over 100,000 Scots have been trapped on NHS waiting lists for more than a year. They have the money, they have the powers, there are no more excuses.
